SRINAGAR: Main opposition National Conference (NC) President and MP Farooq Abdullah today said the communication blockade invoked by the PDP-BJP Government would play havoc with the State’s economy and in turn, rendering thousands of youth unemployed.
Dr Abdullah alleged the Government was not only suppressing the people of the State through brute force but was also persecuting them economically.
”The continued blockade of internet will seriously affect our businesses and especially youth-oriented new start-ups in the ecommerce sector that depend primarily on internet accessibility and penetration. This will in turn lead to an increase in unemployment as the private sector; especially the tourism sector will be severely hit. Using such measures to suppress dissent against,” Dr Abdullah alleged.
